Healing from Purity Culture involves conversations of how
Evangelical communities have created undue amounts of anxiety and
pressure for men as well as women.
We talk with Zachary Wagner (@zacharycwagner), author of the
new book Non-Toxic Masculinity, about the importance of
deconstructing simplistic, reductive practices of manhood and
reimagining new ways that men can conceptualize themselves and
create meaningful relationships.
Zach talks with us about:
Why Does the Book Matter Now:
Generational Understandings of Masculinity
The Power of the Purity Movement
Purity Books
The Effects of Christian Literature
Purity Culture and Sex
Violence as a Result of Purity Culture
Purity Camp
Reducing Each Other's Humanity
Healing
